In Journey: a traveler's notes , the beguiling, fantastical, sometimes haunting art of William Sulit is paired with the poetic fragments of his collaborator-wife Beth Kephart to create an original illustrated journal. Perhaps the two boys in the boat with the pots on their heads recall a childhood adventure. Perhaps the angel dangling from strings signifies a secret loss, or hope, or skyscape. Perhaps the girl in the field of tall grasses is a girl you once saw--or will soon see--while watching through the windows of a train. William Sulit and Beth Kephart have collaborated on numerous projects over the course of many decades--an illustrated corporate fable, illustrated novels, and picture books, among them. Journey features their strikingly different visions and discovers common ground. It makes deliberate room for those who wish to take a journey of their own. Journey is a book of visual and literary prompts for writers, artists, travelers, students, and teachers. It is a place where private dreams and musings, stories and sketches come to life--and an ideal gift for those who wish to explore and then record their memories and dreams. William Sulit is a Salvadoran-born visual artist, ceramicist, and architect and a co-founder of Juncture Workshops. Visit him on Instagram at @ws_studioarts. Beth Kephart is the award-winning author of close to 30 books fiction and nonfiction, an award-winning teacher at the University of Pennsylvania, a co-founder of Juncture Workshops, and a widely-published essayist.
